Store-bought granola often contains high sugar and preservatives, making homemade versions a healthier, more economical choice. Homemade granola allows for complete control over ingredients and customization. A simple ratio of 3 parts oats, 1 part nuts, 1 part seeds, and 1 part dried fruit is recommended for optimal taste and texture. Additionally, a 6:1 ratio of dry to wet ingredients is suggested. Whole oats are preferred, but substitutions can enhance granola's flavor and texture further, allowing for creative variations based on what's available in one's pantry.
Store bought granola can be high in sugar and preservatives, but homemade granola is an economical and healthier option, allowing full control over ingredients.

For binding and flavoring, a 6:1 ratio of dry to wet ingredients is recommended, with flexible ratios for oil and sweeteners based on desired sweetness.
